Faith and climate protection

Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and Jews may have different beliefs but they all share the same resources and they are all affected by the consequences of climate change. In our Global Ideas special, we take an in-depth look at how the world’s major religions perceive and deal with environmental issues and what responsiblity they bear for combating climate change. While global warming is an important issue among all faiths, not all religious groups see it as a danger. We hear from people of various faiths around the world and highlight relevant passages in holy texts that show a close connection between man and nature.
